SUMMARY:Palo Alto Weekly League (Winter Hours!)
DESCRIPTION:SIGN UP FORMS HERE \nLive Action Role Playing is a tremendous teaching tool and capable of dynamic\, physically driven learning that transcends the usual boundaries of standard education. Due to the interactive\, dramatic\, hands on methods used in LARP\, teaching is often effortless and fun. Players explore concepts from history\, linguistics\, political studies\, geography\, psychology\, literature\, mythology\, engineering\, science\, mathematics\, fine arts\, team building\, and much\, much more in a single session and often don’t even realize they are learning due to the fact that they are the active participant in the process\, not the passive receiver.\nThis event takes place in two parts\, weekly\, in Palo Alto at Mitchell Park. The first session from 12:15pm-2:45pm and trains players in the game\, as well as continues an ongoing story the players themselves are involved in creating. The second session from 3:15pm-5:45pm continues this story and expands upon it\, challenging players to follow through on their projects and connect to those of others. This class provides an after school activity that is social\, physical\, and mentally challenging in a time when kids more and more are finding sedentary\, electronic alternatives to real human interactions. Both sessions involve players making and role playing as characters in a shared imaginary world that spans the Bay Area and has hundreds of players continuously involved in collaborating on the process of storytelling and adventure. These events also tie into the weekend events and other leagues which have been a tradition in the area for the past ten years. Players must learn to battle with safe larp weaponry\, solve intricate story elements\, role play as a wide variety of monsters and creatures of the world\, and manage their resources carefully. LARP is helping transform the lives of children all across the Bay Area and beyond. \nFanwar Camps \n(Palo Alto – Winter 2019-20) \nWinter Hours 12:15-2:45pm & 3:15-5:45pm! \n  \nInformation \n  \nRegistration: New players can only join on the first event of the month.  All families must pre-register for this event. There are a limited number of spaces available. Registration and payment are required to save your spot.

At most events\, adults are required to remain on site. HOWEVER: because this event is during the week and is a succession of weekdays\, this requirement is being waived for this event only\, provided you have emergency contacts on file with the organizer and your child does not pose a significant risk to the flow\, safety\, or management of the event.  All children who do not have adults on hand to chaperon them must demonstrate that they are responsible and cooperative and cannot leave the premises for the duration of the camp hours with express written permission (see below). \nCost: Players sign up for one month at a time.  They must pay for the entire month on the first event of the month.  Players are not allowed pay for each day they attend\, but must make one payment of the total they attend.  If they do not attend all the sessions\, they may apply the credit to future events.  Trades for crafting of supplies and repair work is also accepted for those who wish to play a lot but keep the costs down.  See Christopher for projects to do as trade. \nLocation: The camp is being held at Mitchell Park\, in Palo Alto.  We usually meet near the “Push” Statue\, but may have to relocate depending on what other events are happening in the park that week. \nWhat to bring: Students need to bring food (if attending both sessions)\, clothing for variation in the weather\, as well as adequate sun protection and good athletic shoes.  Costumes and props are also a wonderful addition to our events. \nFood and Water: As mentioned above\, food and water are not provided\, and students must bring their own food for this event each day if they are attending both sessions. \nSchedule: We plan to meet every Wednesday and begin in the afternoon with the first session from 12:15pm-2:45pm and the second from 3:15pm-5:45pm.  Each session is a series of missions\, training\, and role-playing encounters.  (If you need early drop off or late pickup- contact me) \n  \nNOTE: The Payment System has changed.  Players must pay at the start of the month for the whole month (see me if this is a problem for you.  Credit is applied for any days did not attend that month.)  No paying per day. \n  \nDates: \n\nNovember (6th\,14th\,20th) New players are welcome so long as they attend from the first day of the month.\n\n  \n\nDecember (4th\,11th\,18th) New players are welcome so long as they attend from the first day of the month.\n\n  \n\n (8th\,15th\,22nd\,29th) New players are welcome so long as they attend from the first day of the month.\n\n  \n\n (5th\, 12th\,19th\,26th) New players are welcome so long as they attend from the first day of the month.\n\nFor more on Why LARP is a tremendous teaching tool\, check out the links below!\nhttp://www.fanwar.com/e107_files/downloads/WhyPlayLARP.pdf \nSign Up Forms and more info is available on the home page and below!

SUMMARY:Winter Indoor/Outdoor Events [Festival]
DESCRIPTION:WHEN: January 11th -6:00pm -9:00 pm (setup begins at 5:00pm – cleanup until 9:30)\n\nWHERE: Willard Libby Park- “Home Sweet Music” Building\n\nCOST: $20 per player\n\nPARENT SUPERVISION:\n– Quest/Character/Club players age 13 and older may attend without parent supervision. But player must have an emergency phone contact and parent must be back at the site by 9:30 pm.\n– All Battle League players\, all players 12 and under\, and ALL NEW PLAYERS\, must have a responsible adult on site.\n\nFOOD/DRINK: No food\, except what players bring to sell for gold in the market. So bring snacks.\n\nWHAT:   We begin with a silent auction\, and then move into a role play event. Players\, parents\, and friends are invited to attend in costume (if you wish) as their characters\, or villagers (props will be provided as usual\, please bring your own musical instrument if desired). Participants will be involved in an ongoing adventure in a market\, buying\, selling\, trading\, dancing\, singing\, playing at sport\, or debating in their respective roles. Upon arrival\, participants will be given a collection of gold to spend at the festival to ensure a lively and active market!\nAll Quest/Character leagues are invited (but the setting will be in Olden Hold in the Roekron game world of Christopher’s LARP.  We have permission to use the athletic fields for some of our games\, so we will be able to do a few matches or skirmishes if the weather is good.\n\n\nFor Tony Quest Players: Tony’s world is set in a world called Teriock.  If you play Tony\, but not Chris\, you don’t have a Roekron based character to play at the festival. Here are your options:(1) If you play advanced with Tony in Berkeley – play a baddy for cost of $10. You will be NPC’s roles the GM needs (and will still have an opportunity to purchase real world items).\n\n(2) Play a Merchant from Teriock. You will play a merchant connected with your character who is doing business on your behalf. You will make gold\, but not gain a level. You will have the opportunity to run your own booth as well.\n(3) Travel a Character. Your character will not be playable during the travel which usually takes 1 week to arrive and 1 week to return. You do NOT receive the entry gold\, as it is assumed this was the cost you paid for your ships travel. You also may be subject to at sea encounters or sinking.\n\nVENDORS: If you would like to be a vendor\, and sell or trade homemade items at the festival\, you will need to bring a few key things. You will need a  tablecloth\, or a blanket to set on the floor or table to display your wares. You will need some place to store your money from purchases as well as a way to make change for people who buy your items. You will also need price tags.  These can be hand made and should display either a dollar value (indicated by the “$” sign) or a gold value (indicated by a “g.p.”) or both (you can sell something for $1 dollar AND 1 g.p. if you like). The goal is to provide a fun and memorable event\, and for everyone to benefit in the process.  PLEASE NOTE- Food and drinks cannot be sold for real world money at this event\, only game world gold (see below for ways to get refunded for your food costs). \nPossible items for vendors to sell are as follows: \nFood (cookies\, chocolate\, treats\, fruit\, baked goods\, kabobs\, popcorn\, etc. but keep in mind it should be served in a way that fits the fantasy setting) [NOTE- food can only be sold for game world money\, not real world money] If you would like bring more expensive food\, you can have Christopher purchase it from you before the event\, and then sell it only for game money (thus you CAN make money if you bring food). \n\nDrinks (water\, apple cider\, hot chocolate\, juice\, soda\, etc. again\, keep in mind it should be served in a way that fits the fantasy setting).  [NOTE- drinks can ONLY be sold for game world money\, not real world money]\n\nCharacter Costume Pieces: Belts\, rings\, amulets\, shirts\, boots\, cloaks\, bags\, etc. Costumes CAN be sold for real world money ($)\n\nLARP Weaponry (daggers\, arrows\, swords\, axes\, bows\, shields\, armor\, wands\, staves\, etc.) Make sure your items pass safety checks. Anything sold that does not pass safety will have to be refunded.  LARP Weaponry CAN be sold for real world money ($)

SUMMARY:Palo Alto Weekly League (Winter Hours!)
DESCRIPTION:SIGN UP FORMS HERE \nLive Action Role Playing is a tremendous teaching tool and capable of dynamic\, physically driven learning that transcends the usual boundaries of standard education. Due to the interactive\, dramatic\, hands on methods used in LARP\, teaching is often effortless and fun. Players explore concepts from history\, linguistics\, political studies\, geography\, psychology\, literature\, mythology\, engineering\, science\, mathematics\, fine arts\, team building\, and much\, much more in a single session and often don’t even realize they are learning due to the fact that they are the active participant in the process\, not the passive receiver.\nThis event takes place in two parts\, weekly\, in Palo Alto at Mitchell Park. The first session from 12:15pm-2:45pm and trains players in the game\, as well as continues an ongoing story the players themselves are involved in creating. The second session from 3:15pm-5:45pm continues this story and expands upon it\, challenging players to follow through on their projects and connect to those of others. This class provides an after school activity that is social\, physical\, and mentally challenging in a time when kids more and more are finding sedentary\, electronic alternatives to real human interactions. Both sessions involve players making and role playing as characters in a shared imaginary world that spans the Bay Area and has hundreds of players continuously involved in collaborating on the process of storytelling and adventure. These events also tie into the weekend events and other leagues which have been a tradition in the area for the past ten years. Players must learn to battle with safe larp weaponry\, solve intricate story elements\, role play as a wide variety of monsters and creatures of the world\, and manage their resources carefully. LARP is helping transform the lives of children all across the Bay Area and beyond. \nFanwar Camps \n(Palo Alto – Winter 2019-20) \nWinter Hours 12:15-2:45pm & 3:15-5:45pm! \n  \nInformation \n  \nRegistration: New players can only join on the first event of the month.  All families must pre-register for this event.
